Experimental Flutter Investigation of Some Simple Models of a Boost Glide Vehicle Wing at Mach Numbers of 3.0 and 7.3

Results of tests at Mach numbers of 3.0 and 7.3 for possible wing flutter of a series of models of a boost-glide-vehicle wing are presented herein. All of the models were tested at conditions which exceeded the proposed nominal design requirements for the full-scale vehicle; namely, dynamic pressure of 1,000 pounds per square foot at the test Mach numbers. None of the models experienced flutter; therefore, large margins of safety from wing flutter are indicated. However, the effects of body freedoms on the flutter characteristics and local types of flutter were not investigated.
